Radical Dharma is a groundbreaking book that challenges the status quo of American Buddhism by addressing the systemic, state-sanctioned violence and oppression faced by Black people since the slave era.

This urgent call to action outlines a new dharma that takes into account the ways that racism and privilege prevent our collective awakening.

The authors provide personal histories and experiences as illustrations of the challenges facing dharma practitioners and teachers who are different from those of the past five decades, and offer a path toward reconciliation and self-liberation that rests on deconstructing rather than amplifying systems of suffering.

This book is essential reading for anyone seeking to understand the intersections of race, spirituality, and social justice in America today.
